[PATCH v5 05/38] LSM: Build ordered list of LSMs to initialize

From: Casey Schaufler
Date: Mon Nov 26 2018 - 18:30:32 EST


This constructs an ordered list of LSMs to initialize, using a hard-coded
list of only "integrity": minor LSMs continue to have direct hook calls,
and major LSMs continue to initialize separately.
